Are there any issues after installing AT&T's free McAfee?

Since installing it on my Mac Pro laptop with Maverick installed, I've been getting unrecognizable app names icons.

Antivirus tools can and variously do cause problems, yes.
One of the typical first steps for troubleshooting weird errors is the removal of the antivirus tools.
Here, I'd remove McAfee per the documented procedures, reboot, and test again.
If I wished to secure the OS X system, I would install ClickToPlugin in Safari, would disable Oracle Java in Safari and any other web browsers or would simply remove or not install Oracle Java, and would remove Adobe Flash Player, and would also disable opening "safe" file extensions within Safari.  (I generally don't install antivirus tools on OS X systems, but then administrative access is also restricted.)
FWIW — if you're downloading kits for various tools — please go to the author's own download site for the particular package.  Avoid downloading tools from pop-ups or freebies or the rest — don't download anything from any other sites.  Go directly to the author's distribution site.  I mention this here as unfortunately some of the major download aggregators are now adding toolbars and other baggage, and those add-ons can cause weirdnesses.

  • Are there any issues when installing two video cards in the same pc?

    Hello
    I am using Premiere CS5 with a quadro 4000 card. I have two Eizo's monitors attached to the quadro 4000 via the display port. Everything is working fine. I need to connect a plasma screen to my pc (3 monitors total) for viewing red files. I could use the red rocket to export video to the plasma screen but it would be nice if I didn't have to install another driver other than the quadro 4000 nvideo driver. My question is, will having 2 video cards installed in my pc cause any problems? If it will, I will have to use the red rocket for the third monitor. Thanks

    Only three obvious drawbacks, provided you have a free PCI-1 16x slot available;
    1. You may need a much more powerful PSU.
    2. You need to improve your cooling significantly.
    3. You need to buy an extra card.

  • I have a late 2009 iMac. I installed OSX 10.8.4 and want to go back to Snow Leopard. I have a 1.5TB external HD. Are there any issues I need to know about or tips I need to know before doing this? Thanks.

    I have a late 2009 iMac. I installed OSX 10.8.4 and want to go back to Snow Leopard. I have a 3TB external HD. Are there any issues I need to know about or tips I need to know before doing this? Thanks.

    Downgrade Lion/Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard
      1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
          loads select your language and click on the Continue
          button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
          Utilities menu.
      2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
          mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
          of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then
          the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART
          info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on
          the Partition tab in the DU main window.
      3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
          from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
          Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
          partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
          the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups made while on Snow Leopard, then you may do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion/Mountain Lion files.

  • Are there any issues with changing IP address of an ACS v5.3 system after initial setup?

    I am migrating from ACS v4.2.1 to v5.3.  I want the final v5.3 system to assume the IP address of the original 4.2 machine so I don't have to change any configs on the network devices.
    Are there any issues with changing the v5.3 system IP address AFTER the initial setup?

    I tried it without a problem. I changed the ip address of the WLC many times.
    You have to make sure though that:
    1-) You change the switchport accordingly to the appropriate vlan if the new ip belongs to a subnet of a different vlan.
    2-) Make sure that all AAA clients configured to use the new IP address of the ACS servers.
    Here is the procedure how to change the ip of the interface (as per cisco doc):
    http://goo.gl/0BYqVT
    I changed also by normal ip address command and it works. but of course the server must be standalone before doing that step (i.e. no secondary ACSs registered to it and it is not registered to other ACSs in a distributoin).

  • Can I move a Virtual Domain Controller from one host(Win Server 2008 R2) to another (Win Server 2012 R2) ? Are there any issues?

    Can I move a Virtual Domain Controller from one host(Win Server 2008 R2) to another (Win Server 2012 R2) ? Are there any issues?

    I also had this error: "Setup cannot continue. Your computer will now restart, and your previous version of Windows will be restored."
    trying to do a in-place upgrade of a Domain Controller Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2012 R2.
    The problem was the separated System Reserved Partition. After I removed using this instructions:
    http://jacobackerman.blogspot.com/2012/12/how-to-remove-system-reserved-partition.html
    The upgrade ran ok, and now have my DC as Windows 2012 R2.
    Hope that helps!.

  • I want to buy a 2nd iPad for my wife. we both have kindles and I have the kindle app for my iPad.  are there any issues or concerns in adding a 2nd iPad to the iTunes account

    I want to buy a 2nd iPad for my wife.  we both have kindles and i have the kindle app for my iPad. are there any issues or concerns in adding a 2nd iPad with kindle app?

    You can sync as many iDevices as you own to a single iTunes library if you want to do so. If you manage the content manually, you can pick and choose the apps, music, videos and so on that you want on each device. One iTunes account means using the same Apple ID to purchase and update all of your apps. You can share apps on both devices because once you buy an app, you can download it to all of your iDevices - as many times as you want - using the same Apple ID and iTunes account. If you decide to do this, you have to sync to the same computer each time in order to keep all of your shared apps in the one iTunes library.
    The Kindle App content is not synced to the iTunes library. It is controlled by your Kindle account. I believe that you can go into your Kindle account and transfer your purchase to your other devices - iPad, computer, etc. You can both have the Kindle app on your iPads and share the content as far as I know, so I see no conflict there. However, while I do have the Kindle app and an account, I do not use it very often.
    If you want to share the one iTunes account, there should be no problems with a second iPad. I sync my iPad, my iPod Touch and my wife's iPod Touch to my MacBook using the same iTunes library and we have different content on all three devices. My daughter uses my iTunes account for her iPod Touch and syncs to her own MacBook and her own iTunes library.
    Four devices using one iTunes account syncing to two different iTunes libraries.

  • Are there any issues with Adobe Photoshop CS5 and OS X Yosemite 10.10?

    Are there any known issues with Adobe Photoshop CS5 and OS X Yosemite 10.10? I heard I would need an older Java version to start it.
    [ spammy links removed by admin ]

    You'll need to reinstall Photoshop CS5 after installing the MacOS 10.10 update -- for some reason the OS updater stomps on some of the Photoshop files.

  • Are there any apps that install animated lock screens without jail breaking my iPhone 5?

    Are there any apps that can install animated lock screens without jail breaking the iPhone 5?

    I don't know of any way, except perhaps by using an animated GIF or PNG as your wallpaper. I've never tried it, though.
    I don't recommend jailbreaking your phone, voiding your warranty, and risking ruining the phone just for this feature, however - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

  • Are there any issues with MacPros+Dual Displays and FCP?

    I have a MacPro (2.1) with an ATI X1900XT graphics card (2 DVI ports). It is currently hooked up to a single 24". My usage is mostly Browsing, Final Cut Suite and Video. I am planning on upgrading to Dual Displays (2*24" or 2*27") but read about some vague issues the ATI might have when using dual displays and FCP (Color more specifically). Are there any specific issues I should be aware of before getting a second display?
    Many thanks in advance

    One graphics card? Two displays? ZERO ISSUES! Not sure what "vague issue the ATI" cards have, but I have that exact card, and run two 24" displays with no problems. I have run dual displays for years. I find working with one very...cramped.

  • Are there any issues regarding running Labview on Windows Vista

    I am a cognitive psychology graduate student, and I am considering switching to LabView to display stimuli and gather RT data. I have previously used E-Prime for this task, but E-Prime doesn't seem to run well with Windows Vista. Are there any known issues regarding running LabView with Windows Vista?
    Thanks
    Chris 

    I've had no problems on Vista*. Only issue I've had was concerning how Vista uses fonts, but if you start on Vista and don't switch between XP and Vista, etc., then you'll be OK.
    *no problems with LabVIEW's compatibility with Vista. Now, Vista in general, that's another story and not for this thread/forum.

  • Personal address book to a sub address book .. it will no longer work, are there any issues?

    Hello .. in my personal address book - I can no longer drag a name from personal address book to a sub address list/book .. it will no longer work, are there any known issues,please ?
    thank you in advance

    I suspect that your Personal Address Book file is corrupted and won't save any changes. As a check, what happens if you double-click the List in question and add the new member by typing it in? And then if you close and reopen Thunderbird?
